Washington D.C. – November 1st, 2023- Free2move is bringing carvaloo on as an AI based damage detection software partner for their car-sharing service. In line with their leadership as both an AI and tech company, carvaloo will offer Free2move highly precise, immediate damage detection, empowering Free2move with the real-time information necessary to streamline its claims processes and ensure its fleets are in optimal condition.
The ability to offer customers access to quality, well-maintained vehicles is a core advantage Free2move provides.

The system benefits include faster vehicle repair, better road safety thanks to perfectly maintained fleets, greater vehicle uptime, lower costs, and a transparent and smooth claims process.
Driven to constantly improve the customer experience, Free2move has already equipped 100 of its Washington D.C. car-sharing fleet with this innovative technology. The aim of this strategic partnership is to ensure 100% of the U.S.-based Free2move vehicles are equipped with carvaloo by the end of the year.
“At Free2move, we embrace the latest technology and uncover brave new paths to empower people with the seamless freedom of movement,” begins Clemens Schoenberger, Director of Operations, Free2move North America. “We immediately saw the benefits of carvaloo technology, including an increase in vehicle up-time and an easy and straightforward claims process.
